If you want to capture what's going on, you don't need 120fps video. Take a low-res snapshot every 5-10 minutes and send it off. It doesn't need OCR or anything fancy. That's still a ton of information, with very little

You're only seeing the requests that are using your DNS server. If the Alexa device has backup IPs or hostnames or even it's own DNS server, you're not gonna see those.

Ron D Moore also worked on the remake of Battlestar Galactica. I think one of the first real binge-watched shows that I can think of. He was the guy who pushed for story arcs in DS9, while they were trying so hard to keep the show episodic.

I mean, I have piles of even older PCs that work just fine too. That's hardly specific to Apple. Shit I just had a LAN party this weekend, and the majority of the computers people brought were over 10 years old, because nobody really h

You don't buy a PC and try to run MacOS on it do you? Then why do people keep buying random laptops and then complaining when Linux doesn't run on it? You buy a laptop from a vendor who designs them to run Linux out of the box. Al

What does soldering it to the board have to do with reliability? If they were soldered onto those systems you talk about, all those would have had to be replaced instead of just having the drive swapped out and re-imaged.

Those netbooks were hot garbage when they came out. I remember trying a bunch of them, and they were all slow and shitty even when they came out. I know a few people who bought various brands, and they basically got put away in a desk and n

I have a theory... I think it has to do with Chinese cars. You know how so many of the cars from China are kinda weird looking? Not all of them, but a lot of them are either trying totally new styling, or seem to be directly copying existin

Yeah, this 0.2% of the population means 640,000 people. For one disease. There's more than one disease out there. So for these people it's bad luck, sucks to be them. For your success, it's all hard work.

Having a good web browser doesn't sell apps. That's why they don't care about it. They would rather you not have one at all and only have access to things via apps.

When I run Transmission, it also says "don't use this for piracy." Of course people are gonna pirate with it. It's just to cover their asses.

I'm so horrifically disappointed every time I go in there. Their monitor selection is all super low-end trash, as is most of their electronics they sell (TVs, stereos, computers etc). You're lucky if they have an actual PC compone

Have you ever worked on a car? OBD standards literally only require emissions controls to be openly diagnosed. The rest of the CEL codes can 100% be vendor specific. So when your body control module shits out, and you can't lock and un
